BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a shift register, a shift register array, and a display apparatus; in particular, the invention relates to a shift register, a shift register array, and a display apparatus, which utilize input signals, output signals, and clock signals to decrease the stress, resulted from having a bias for a long time, of the transistors thereof.

2. Descriptions of the Related Art

Gate drivers and source drivers are disposed out of panels of most of the liquid crystal displays, and are configured to generate gate pulse signals and data signals. However, this way would cost much so other ways are developed. For example, manufacturing a gate driver, comprising shift registers, on a glass substrate is a so-called integrated driving circuit.

An amorphous thin film transistor process is often used for an active matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD) in the present days. There are many disadvantages when shift registers are disposed on a glass substrate under this process. For example, the panel would operate abnormally because one or some of the shift registers are biased for a long time when the panel is lighted up.

U.S. Patent Publication No. 2004/0046729 discloses a shift register 1, as shown in FIG. 1. It has the above-mentioned defect. Firstly, in addition to driving a transistor 104, configured to be pull-up, node B further drives a transistor 102 and a transistor 103. The node B is overloaded, so an output signal of the shift register 1 is delayed. Furthermore, a transistor 101 and the transistor 102 need to have a size ratio larger than 1:16 for a better efficiency at node A. As a matter of result, V_(GS) of the transistor 101 is equal to about V_(ON)−V_(OFF). This high cross voltage increases the current flowing through the transistor 101, and the node A generates a bias for a long time. Besides, the transistor 101 also has a bias for a long time because the voltage of node E is larger than 0V. The aforementioned defects cause that the panel, which uses this shift register 1, is unable to operate normally over a long period of time.

FIG. 2 is an ideal timing diagram of the shift register in FIG. 1. CKV denotes a positive clock; CKVB denotes a negative clock; GOUT[N−1], GOUT[N], and GOUT[N+1] denotes output signals of shift registers in different stages. N−1 is a previous stage of N, N is a previous stage of N+1, and N is the shift register shown in FIG. 1. Signal C denotes an ideal waveform at the node B in FIG. 1. The signal C is formed by CKV, GOUT[N−1], and GOUT[N]. The aforementioned defect leads to distortion of the signal C, and the lifetime of the shift register would be, therefore, reduced.

If amorphous silicon is adopted as the material of a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel, the bias defect suffered by the transistor should be taken into consideration more seriously so that the design of the shift register can ensure an operating time of the LCD panel would not be affected. U.S. Patent Publication No. 2004/0165692 discloses a shift register 3 shown in FIG. 3; this shift register 3 cannot overcome this defect yet. In this patent, a transistor 301 suffers an over bias and the lifetime of the transistor 301 is reduced thereby due to a high voltage of node D. Accordingly, the lifetime of the shift register and the panel is reduced, too.

Accordingly, the current circuitry of shift registers suffers an over bias. This not only delays an output, but also reduces the lifetime of the panel. Therefore, a solution to reducing the bias suffered by any transistor of the shift register is urgently required in this industrial field.

In this embodiment, the second transistor 402 is the only one transistor that the node N5 drives. Therefore, a higher voltage level can be provided so that the output may be stable without delay. Besides, the lifetime of the display apparatus is extended thereby.

The simulation results of the prior art shown in FIG. 1 and the shift register array of the first embodiment are now analyzed. Both the shift register arrays of the two comprise 22 shift registers, and both the shift registers at the first stage of the prior art and the first embodiment are triggered by the power source V_(st) shown in FIG. 5. Moreover, both the positive clock signal CK uses the clock shown in FIG. 6.

FIG. 7A and FIG. 7B respectively illustrate the gate voltages of the pull-up transistors of the shift registers at the fifth stage, i.e. the voltage at the node N5 in the first embodiment, when the shift register arrays of the prior art and the first embodiment operate under the aforementioned conditions. Comparing FIG. 7A and FIG. 7B, the gate of the pull-up transistor of the first embodiment has a higher voltage than that of the prior art, especially the portions 71 and 72. This is because the load of the gate of the pull-up transistor of the first embodiment is less.

With measuring the output voltages of the shift registers at the fifth stage of the prior art, the rising time is t_(r)=6.81 μs, the falling time is t_(f)=4.7 μs, and the highest voltage is 24.48V. With measuring the output voltages of the shift registers at the fifth stage of the first embodiment, the rising time is t_(r)=4.78 μs, the falling time is t_(r)=4.03 μs, and the highest voltage is 25.86V. One can realize that the rising time and the falling time of the first embodiment are shorter, while the highest voltage of the first embodiment is higher based on the aforementioned data.

With reference to the measured data, FIG. 7A, and FIG. 7B, the load at the gate of the pull-up transistor of the first embodiment is less because the input signal, the output signal, and the clock signals are provided to the driving circuit. The pull-up transistor, hence, has a better efficiency and the output signal of the shift register is better.

The second embodiment is also a display apparatus. In contrast with the first embodiment, the second embodiment has the shift register with a different structure. FIG. 8 illustrates a shift register 8 of the second embodiment. In particular, the differences between the shift register 8 and the shift register 43 are that the first driving circuit 81 of the shift register 8 further comprises a tenth transistor 810, and that the second driving circuit 82 further comprises a tenth transistor 820. The two tenth transistors 810 and 820 are configured to decrease the voltage of the node N2 and the node N3, respectively. The voltages of the nodes N2 and the N3 are generated by the seventh transistor 407 and the seventh transistor 417, respectively. The two tenth transistors 810 and 820 form discharging paths.

The two tenth transistors 810 and 820 are also N-type transistors. Both comprise a gate, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The first electrode is drain, and the second electrode is source. More specifically, the gate of the tenth transistor 810 receives the positive clock signal CK. The second electrode of the tenth transistor 810 is coupled to the power source VSS. The first electrode of the tenth transistor 810 is coupled to the gate of the fourth transistor 404. The positive clock signal CK received by the gate of the tenth transistor 810 is opposite to the negative clock signal XCK received by the fourth transistor 404. The gate of the tenth transistor 820 receives the negative clock signal XCK. The second electrode of the tenth transistor 820 is coupled to the power source VSS. The first electrode of the tenth transistor 810 is coupled to the gate of the fourth transistor 414. The positive clock signal CK received by the gate of the tenth transistor 820 is opposite to the negative clock signal XCK received by the fourth transistor 414.

The simulation results of the shift register arrays of the first and second embodiments are analyzed. Both the shift register arrays of the first and second embodiments comprise 22 shift registers, and both the shift registers at the first stage of the first and second embodiments utilize the power source V_(A) shown in FIG. 5. Moreover, both the positive clock signals CK for the first and second embodiments use the clock shown in FIG. 6.

FIG. 9A and FIG. 9B illustrate the voltages at node N2 of the shift register at the fifth stage of the first and second embodiments respectively. As one may observe, the node N2 of the second embodiment has a lower voltage, especially the portion 922 comparing to the portion 921, and the portion 924 comparing to the portion 923. Moreover, the second embodiment has a pull-down voltage below 0V in comparison with the first embodiment as shown in the portion 926 comparing to the portion 925, and the portion 928 comparing to the portion 927.

With measuring the output voltages of the shift registers at the fifth stage of the first embodiment, the rising time is t_(r)=4.78 μs, the falling time is t_(f)=4.03 μs, and the highest voltage is 25.86V. With measuring the output voltages of the shift registers at the fifth stage of the second embodiment, the rising time is t_(r)=4.7 μs, the falling time is t_(f)=3.95 μs, and the highest voltage is 25.88V. Since the second embodiment comprises the discharging paths in the first driving circuit 81 and the second driving circuit 82, the rising time and the falling time of the second embodiment are shorter and the highest voltage thereof is also higher than those of the first embodiment.

The N-type transistors in the first and second embodiments can be replaced by P-type transistors. If P-type transistors are used, the first electrode is source and the second electrode is drain.

As stated above, using the arrangement of the first embodiment, i.e., utilizing different signal combinations as the signal sources of the driving circuit, is capable of reducing the bias of the transistors. Furthermore, adding the discharging elements, the tenth transistors 810 and 820, may further decrease the voltages of some nodes of the driving circuit. With these two ways, the present invention enhances the efficiency of the whole shift register so that the lifetime of the panel using this shift register is extended.
